Discipline
Discipline is the elementary step of surrender. If it is not possible to adhere to mental discipline in the beginning, one can take up at least the physical discipline to start with. After that, if the teacher's capability is well established upon the mind, and the pupil too is a sincere seeker of Reality, mental submission will begin to develop by itself.
